Threshold-based Fall Detection

Threshold-Based Fall Detection is a fall detection method that belongs to the class of rule-based systems and is distinguished by its reliance on predefined physiological or kinematic thresholds—such as acceleration magnitude, angular velocity, or posture angle—to trigger fall alarms when sensor measurements exceed established limits.
